Beer Round Here.

I went to the local brewer last week and collected 10 bags of spent hops for the plot. They give them away, so it has to be the cheapest brought in soil improver I know. Of course you have to go collect them and that can be heavy work if you’ve no one to help you lift the bags.

I then took them to the plot and had fun spreading them at the weekend despite the constant rain and wind. As they were still moist they didn’t fly about. It was too dark to take a picture by the end, so you will just have to use your imagination.

The last lot I put on have totally disappeared form the soil as they break down really easily after the boil.

Good old hops!
